Offset drops debut solo album, ‘Father of 4'

Offset (born Kiari Kendrell Cephus) has just released his debut solo album, Father of 4. The record was released early Friday morning as previously suggested by the rapper.

Nearly two weeks ago, the 27-year-old posted a teaser video hinting at his first album along with an accompanying documentary. The short montage highlighted the date Feb. 22, 2019.

The teaser featured footage of the rapper in the studio, onstage alongside his cousins and Migos bandmates, Quavo and Takeoff. The final scene is a clip of his wife Cardi B, giving birth to their daughter, Kulture Kiari Cephus.

The album’s title and artwork came as a surprise to many longtime Offset fans as it blatantly revealed he was a father to four children: Jordan (nine years old), Kody and Kalea (three years old) and Kulture, who is now seven months old.

“A lot of y’all didn’t know I have four kids,” he wrote on Twitter. “Proud father!”

Cardi B and Offset arrive at the 2018 American Music Awards at Microsoft Theater on Oct. 9, 2018, in Los Angeles, Calif.

I am a FATHER OF 4 The most beautiful and smart kids I could ask for. I want them to understand there dad for the good and the bad. The decisions I made was to feed I’m not a perfect FATHER BUT I AM A FATHER OF 4!

Father hood was missing in my life and sometimes I have to be missing for work but it all come back to the little ones I’m setting them up for the future. I didn’t take the cleanest route to success I ran into walls and hurdles but I over came them I’m proud of me!!!

Ahead of Father of 4’s release, the hip-hop power couple decided to share a couple of cute posts to social media as a little teaser.

Offset first posted a behind-the-scenes look at the album art photoshoot, which featured all of his children. He was shown spending time with his children as the camera crew tried to get Kulture’s attention for the picture.
